Advocacy Groups Demand Feds Investigate Muslim Teen's Death

The unsolved death of Muslim teenager Ben Keita in Lake Stevens, Washington, has advocacy groups demanding a full federal investigation.

KBOO reporter Sam Bouman spoke to Arsalan Bukhari, executive director of the Seattle office of the Council on American-Islamic Relations. The FBI's Seattle Field Office did not respond to a request for comment, and as of March 9 the FBI has not yet publicly opened a full investigation.
